The Vagabond Prince (Royal Romances #6)

Prince Alistair leaves Paraguay after years as a relief worker to return to his ailing father’s bedside in England. Alistair would rather go for a run or do a few hundred pushups to block out the pain of his guilty secret than return to the public life of a royal. But when he meets Amanda, she accepts him as he is now—a shell-shocked aid worker. Soon, she’s the only person he can turn to, the only one who doesn’t judge him.

Fashion historian Amanda MacCallum recognizes Prince Alistair in a shop and turns on the charm. Her sister is married to his older brother, but Amanda has been shut out of royal events because she once tried to seduce the Prince of Wales the weekend of her own wedding. Brash and ambitious, Amanda will get what she wants, whether it’s a successful gallery show or a seat at the royal dinner table.

Alistair wants to launch a charity. Amanda uses her fashion expertise to make over the rugged medic into an eligible heartthrob to garner the media attention he will need. When sparks fly between them, and Alistair finds himself drawn to her, needing her, the tabloids get ‘Handy Mandy’ in their crosshairs. The press isn’t the only problem—his family hates her and bans her from visiting him at Kensington Palace. The man who ran off to Paraguay to avoid family conflict is suddenly boiling in it. Will the vagabond prince do a runner or stay and face off with his royal siblings and his cancer-stricken father to be with the woman he loves?
